Your 1st Ass kicking rock band...

[dcat]

What was the name of the band who first got you into Rock/Metal

For me it was 'Steppenwolf.'

2 tracks from the "Easy Rider" soundtrack album, "The Pusher" + "Born to be Wild"

Struth, that was a while back.

Sorry if this is a topic already discussed.

Way you go Guys/Gals...

PSOT, I love Mike's pre encore trivia quizzes. lol.

Hmmm lets see first band I ever really loved was The Offspring (still do to this day) but they aren't rock, possibly Zeppelin because my dad and my uncle are both big fans and they tried really hard to get me into them but to be honest even though I'm a fan I'm not like an uber fan (I accept they're awesome just there is stuff I'd rather listen to). To be honest it'd probably be Guns n' Roses, back in the day, or Priest.

[:Wreath:]

I should really add Queen, Queen were practically my Alpha and Omega for somtime.

 

[fränzi]

Twas Rammstein

 

[NFU]

my first rock band was the beatles. my first "ass kicking" rock band? zeppelin or rush.

 

[znaak]

Ozzy Osbourne and Iron Maiden.

 

[Frosties]

Probably either Queen, Whitesnake or Bon Jovi

 

[Pethical]

deftones: mega 12 year old foolish but yes, i don't consider them to be very ass kicking so i guess opeth? got into them when i was 14 so perhaps them.

 

[Don Corleone]

bon jovi - these days (1994)

kick ass album. got me into proper rock n roll

 

[Botfly]

Camel, Focus, Jethro Tull, Genesis, Yes, PFM, etc... first bands I listened to and liked as a kid, dad was all into it. Although really didn't take serious interest in music until I heard Opeth when I was like 13/14

BLACK SABBATH

Children Of The Grave had me converted in seconds.

But I was brought up around rock & metal, so while Black Sabbath made me appreciate the genre more - i was listening to Extreme from around the age of 5 until about 7 when i stopped caring about music.

I think the first one was like 'Dire Straights' or something. With that 'Money for nothin' ' Song. That was awesome.

 

[metal_wrath]

Hahaa, you don't even want to know

 

[affinityband]
